When I boot with that disk the DD drivers are already loaded.
Jerome Fine is more suited to answering this than me, particularly since I
can't remember the full sysgen process other than to specify drivers,
declare maximum open files etc. I can only assume your system files and
kernel are already set up to load the correct disk drivers.....
Ok, so the DD.SYS file still needs to be on the disk. It just gets loaded
automatically when the system boots. I see.
